[1] In the fourth quarter of 2011, the Company's annual impairment test, in connection with fourth quarter triggering events, resulted in a non-cash charge to reflect impairment of goodwill in the Company's Branded Consumables segment. The impairment charge was recorded primarily within the United States Playing Cards business and was primarily due to a decrease in the fair value of forecasted cash flows, reflecting lower levels of revenues and margins in the business than originally forecast.
